The Atlanta Braves’ Freddie Freeman charged to victory in the 2020 MVP voting, getting 28 of the 30 available first-place votes. The Dodgers* Mookie Betts got the other two, and secured the runners-up spot, with Mannie Machado of the Padres finishing in third. There were some former Diamondbacks to be found further down the ballot. After winning the Cy Young award yesterday, Trevor Bauer finished 10th, and first-baseman Paul Goldschmidt, now a Cardinal, was 15th. Former Arizona first-round pick, Dansby Swanson, received one tenth-place vote, so thanks for that, Dave Stewart. That vote came from Bob Nightengale - he was also one of the two people to put Betts ahead of Freeman.
